Abstract :
We propose a new design, based on the rectangular microstrip antenna, which has lower resonant frequencies or smaller size. Although slightly larger cross-polarization may be induced, it can be reduced by properly choosing the wire direction. The resonant frequency can be tuned by adjusting the mesh density.
